Publisher's summary

Become body literate with Brain: An Owner's Guide, the next book in The Body Literacy Library, an enlightening series that democratizes health for a new generation of listeners.

Brain: An Owner’s Guide is an informative and practical guide to all aspects of brain health, from maximizing your mental well-being today to protecting your brain against future serious health issues. Leading neuroscientist Eli Ricker explains how the brain works, discusses how you can take care of and protect your brain, and explains what you can do to improve your memory and concentration at any age. Ricker also looks at what constitutes mental "well-being" and the science behind a positive mindset, resilience, concentration, and memory, as well as low mood, depression, and brain fog. Dementia and other brain disorders are a huge concern for many, and Ricker looks at how these occur, the latest medical research, and what you can do to protect your brain for life.

Author Elizabeth Ricker is an engaging and media-friendly neuroscientist who specializes in brain health research, with a particular emphasis on brain "hacking," memory, and concentration. She translates medical jargon into simple, clear prose, answering frequently asked patient queries, such as "How can I improve my concentration?," "Do brain games work?," "Is dementia hereditary?," "What is good brain food?," "Why do I have brain fog?," and much more.

From the importance of sleep and stress management to why dementia is a feminist issue, this hardworking book applies science to the everyday, with simple illustrations, checklists, FAQs, and myth busters, all supported by the latest medical research. Brain: An Owner’s Guide can help you better understand your mind and aims to enhance your long-term quality of life.
